1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A 22-year-old woman presented to the emergency room with right lower abdominal pain. A CT scan suggested potential appendicitis and perforation. She had no relevant medical or surgical history, and she last had vaginal sex 4 years prior to admission. During surgery, turbid fluid, secondary inflammatory changes, and dilated, fluid-filled fallopian tubes pointed to a diagnosis of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), so she was started on azithromycin, metronidazole and piperacillin/tazobactam. The following day, she continued to have abdominal pain and developed tachycardia, hypotension, a marked leukemoid response, haemoconcentration, third space fluid accumulation and acidosis. Culture results led to her being further diagnosed with
